Suffering childhood relatives
Grandfather Lei Xinting
Grandfather Lei Xinting, for many years relied on landowner Tang Si Gunzi's 10 acres of land to barely maintain a half-sufficient life for his family. He became seriously ill due to the exploitation of land rent, usury and exorbitant taxes. In the winter when Lei Feng was 3 years old, the landlord Tang Sigun forced Lei Xinting to pay off the rent debt before the new year. Lei Xinting died with regret at the end of the year.
Father Lei Mingliang:
Father Lei Mingliang participated in the Hunan peasant movement led by Chairman Mao and served as a self-defense captain. He was arrested in 1938 and severely beaten by the Kuomintang, causing internal injuries and disability. He returned to his hometown to recuperate and farm to survive. In 1944, he was severely beaten by the Japanese invaders, and his injuries were even more serious. He finally died in the autumn of the following year.
Mother Zhang Yuanhuang
Mother Zhang Yuanhuang was born in a blacksmith's family. When she was a teenager, she was sent to Lei's family to be a child bride. After getting married, I worked hard to manage the life of the family. After the death of her husband, eldest son, and youngest son, her life became increasingly difficult. After being humiliated and persecuted by the landlord, she hanged herself from a beam on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival in 1947. Elder brother Lei Zhengde:
My elder brother Lei Zhengde went out to work as a child laborer when he was twelve years old. He contracted tuberculosis (tuberculosis) under the torture of heavy labor. One day, he suddenly fainted next to the machine and bruised his arm and fingers. After being fired, he worked as a child laborer in a printing and dyeing workshop. Due to overwork, his lung disease worsened and he had no money for medical treatment. He died within a few days.
Birth
Lei Feng was born on December 18, 1940, in a family of poor farmers in Jianjiatang Village, Wangcheng County, Hunan Province.
Unforgettable scars
Lei Feng became an orphan when he was less than seven years old. The sixth uncle and grandma of this family adopted him. In order to help his sixth uncle and his grandmother's family, he often went to the mountains to cut firewood. However, the local firewood mountains were occupied by wealthy families, and poor people were not allowed to cut firewood. One day, Lei Feng went to Serpentine Mountain to cut firewood, and was seen by the landlady of the Xu family. The landlady pointed at Lei Feng, yelled at him, and snatched the wood knife away. Lei Feng cried and wanted to take the wood knife back, but the landlady actually raised her knife and grabbed it. Lei Feng slashed three times on the back of his left hand, and blood dripped down his fingers on the mountain road...
Determined to join the army
In August 1949, the Chinese People's Liberation Army passed by Lei Feng hometown. When Lei Feng saw the camp team settling in, they greeted the fellow villagers and helped them carry water, sweep the floor, buy firewood and vegetables, and paid according to the price, without taking any needle or thread from the masses, so he had the desire to join the army from the bottom of his heart. Lei Feng found the company commander of the army and insisted on becoming a soldier. When the company commander learned of his miserable life experience, he told him that he was still young and could only serve as a soldier when he grew up. He also gave him a pen and encouraged him to study hard. Only when you grow up can you defend and build China.
Join the Children's League
In 1950, a farmers' association was established in the township and land reform was carried out. Lei Feng actively participated in this movement and became the leader of the Children's League, standing guard and sentry. Patrolling to prevent enemy sabotage, he also learned to speak fast and carry out propaganda.
Student days
In the summer of 1950, the township government sent orphan Lei Feng to study for free. In the summer of 1956, Lei Feng graduated from Heyeba Primary School. In the past few years, Lei Feng overcame difficulties and studied diligently, and was highly praised by teachers and students. He helped backward classmates, protected the collective food, and fought against bad elements. He was highly praised by school teachers, classmates and fellow villagers. At the graduation ceremony, he took the stage to speak and resolutely requested to stay in the countryside and contribute his meager strength to the construction of a new socialist countryside.
Going to work
In September 1956, Lei Feng worked as a correspondent in the township government. In November, Lei Feng, who was sixteen years old, was recommended to the Wangcheng County Party Committee Be a civil servant. In 1957, Lei Feng was honored as a model worker in the government.
In the spring of 1958, Lei Feng came to Kunshan Lake Farm and worked as a tractor driver.
In September 1958, Lei Feng came to Anshan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. to work as a C-80 bulldozer operator.
In August 1959, Lei Feng came to Gongchangling Coking Plant to participate in infrastructure construction. One day in the summer of the next year, he led his partners to fight in the rain and saved 7,200 bags of cement from loss. "Liaoyang Daily" reported Lei Feng's rescue of cement and praised his deeds of self-sacrifice for others.
Lei Feng After working in Anshan and Coking Plant for one year and two months, he was rated as an advanced worker three times, a pacesetter five times, a red-banner bearer eighteen times, and won the title of "Young Socialist Construction Activist".
Join the People's Liberation Army
In early December 1959, the new year's recruitment work had begun. Lei Feng urgently requested to join the Chinese People's Liberation Army, but in view of the recruitment of the coking plant The number of places was limited, and Lei Feng's performance at the construction site was very outstanding. The leader was reluctant to let him go, so he refused to sign up. This made Lei Feng anxious. He ran dozens of miles and came to the People's Armed Forces Department of Liaoyang City to report to Political Commissar Yu Talking about his own experience showed his willingness and determination to join the army.
The political commissar Yu of the Ministry of Armed Forces and the leaders sent by the engineering corps to recruit soldiers specially studied the issue of Lei Feng’s enlistment and believed that he was born in a poor family. After being tempered by practical work, he had good political qualities and a clear motivation for joining the army. Although he is 1.54 meters tall, weighs less than 55 kilograms, and is in poor physical condition, he has driven a tractor on a farm and a bulldozer in a factory. He has been rated as an activist and advanced worker in socialist construction many times. I believe he will grow well when he joins the army. Faster. Finally decided to approve Lei Feng's enlistment.
On January 8, 1960, Lei Feng received the enlistment notice and accompanied the recruits from Liaoyang to Yingkou City where he was stationed. As a representative of new recruits, he spoke at a meeting to welcome his comrades into the army.
Lei Feng’s regiment is a unit with a glorious war history. He is determined to carry forward the fine traditions with practical actions. When eating, he takes the initiative to read newspapers to everyone and promote the party’s policies: during breaks, he teaches everyone to sing, Lei Feng felt unparalleled warmth in this big family. Due to his weak arm strength, he failed to practice throwing grenades at the beginning. He went out to practice before dawn. After more than ten days, he finally became the same as other comrades. , got excellent in the live-fire learning. Coming from behind
After the recruit training, Lei Feng was assigned to the transportation company as an automobile soldier. "I obey the needs of the revolution. The revolution needs me to burn charcoal, so I will be Zhang Side;" The revolution needs me to plug bullet holes, so I will do Huang Jiguang." This is the attitude Lei Feng expressed to the organization.
Lei Feng has a cheerful personality and is usually very active. He teaches singing, runs posters, and speaks fast and everything. OK, the superior leader arranged for him to join the warrior performance team, so he worked early and late to memorize his lines. Later, considering that Lei Feng's Hunan accent was incompatible with everyone's Mandarin and affected the performance, he offered to replace himself and concentrate on doing the performance. Good logistics work, although everyone did not see Lei Feng's performance, every program on the stage contains Lei Feng's hard work, and his spirit of always caring about the collective and obeying the needs of the work.
Lei Feng After returning to the transport company, he devoted himself to intense learning of driving skills. In view of the lack of training vehicles, he led everyone to build a driving station. Lei Feng studied the skills without sleep and food, and was unanimously elected as the leader of the technical learning team. .In May, Lei Feng became a qualified driver and was assigned to the second platoon and fourth shift, and was given a No. 13 car to drive to the construction site. Nail Spirit
During the construction task, he spent all day Driving around in a car, it was difficult to find time to study, so Lei Feng put the book in his satchel and took it with him. As soon as the car stopped and there was no other work, he would sit in the cab and read. He wrote this in his diary A passage: "Some people say that they are busy at work and have no time to study. I think the problem is not that you are busy at work, but whether you are willing to study and whether you can squeeze the time. There is time to study, but the question is whether we are good at squeezing it in. , are you willing to drill? A good wooden board has no holes on it, but why can nails be driven in? This is because they are squeezed in by pressure. From this point of view, nails have two advantages: one is the squeeze force , one is drilling strength. We should also promote this "nail" spirit in learning and be good at squeezing and drilling.
A voluntary labor
On a Sunday in the early summer of 1960, Lei Feng had a severe stomachache. He went to the health department at the regiment headquarters and prescribed some medicine. When he came back, he saw a construction worker. Construction was in full swing on the construction site. It turned out to be a building for Benxi Road Primary School. Lei Feng couldn't help but push up a small car and join the procession of transporting bricks. Until the noon break, Lei Feng was surrounded by a group of workers and faced everyone. He said: "We are all contributing to the construction of socialism. Like everyone else, as long as I fulfill my own obligations, I can shine a light!" That afternoon, I learned about Lei Feng's name and the location of his troops. The Municipal Second Construction Company organized workers to beat gongs and drums to send letters of thanks. Only then did everyone know that Lei Feng, who was ill, had done a good deed and had a special Sunday.
The respectable "idiot"
In August 1960, there was a flood in Fushun, where he was stationed, and the transportation was connected to the flood fighting and rescue command. Lei Feng endured the burns on his hands that had just been involved in fighting the fire. In pain, he and his comrades fought continuously for seven days and seven nights at the Shangsi Reservoir Dam, and were given a second-class merit certificate.
A mobilization meeting was held in Wanghua District to call for mass production. The momentum was so great that Lei Feng took to the streets. When he was doing business, he happened to see this scene. He took out the 200 yuan he had saved in the factory and the army (203 yuan in the passbook) and ran to the Wanghua District Party Committee Office to donate it to make some contribution to the construction of the motherland. The comrade who took care of him really couldn't He refused his friendship and had to accept half of it. The other 100 yuan was donated to the people of Liaoyang when Liaoyang suffered a flood that had never happened in a century. When our country suffered a serious natural disaster, he donated his own money for national construction and the disaster area. All the savings, but reluctant to drink a bottle of soda. Join the party
The Youth League Party Committee established Lei Feng for hard work. After becoming a model of diligence and thrift, Lei Feng set stricter demands on himself. He was born in poverty, had clear likes and dislikes, was studious and motivated, had high class consciousness, and had correct motivations for joining the party. Based on his consistent performance, the branch meeting unanimously approved Lei Feng's application for joining the party. On November 8, 1960, Lei Feng gloriously joined the Communist Party of China.
At the end of 1960, Lei Feng's deeds were published in newspapers and periodicals under the title "A Good Warrior for a Poor Child", which caused a strong response. More and more units from all over the country invited him to give reports. Banban’s family history tells people not to forget the past and inspires them to unite as one in building the motherland and to overcome difficulties more firmly. At the request of the people, the company set up an exhibition room for Lei Feng's deeds, and the Military Museum of the Chinese People's Revolution also came to collect Lei Feng's deeds...
United and friendly, Lei Feng took out his collection of books for everyone to study. , known as the "little Lei Feng Library". He helped his comrades learn knowledge. His classmate Qiao Anshan had a low level of education, so Lei Feng taught him how to read and learn arithmetic step by step. When Lei Feng found out that his classmate Xiao Zhou's father was seriously ill, he wrote a letter to his family in Xiao Zhou's name and sent 10 yuan. Comrade Xiao Han had several holes burned in his cotton trousers by sulfuric acid while driving at night. When Lei Feng came back from duty and found out, he took off his hat and repaired Xiao Han's trousers stitch by stitch, and gently covered it with On him. Qiao Anshan, who knew this situation, said: "In order to mend your trousers, Lei Feng stayed up half the night!" The people's servant
Since 1961, Lei Feng was often invited to give reports in other places. The more opportunities there are, the more opportunities there are to serve the people. There is a popular saying: "Lei Feng traveled a thousand miles on business and did a train of good deeds." One time, when Lei Feng was changing trains at Shenyang Station, he saw a group of people gathered around a middle-aged woman carrying a child as soon as she got out of the ticket gate. It turned out that this woman was going from Shandong to Jilin to see her husband, and she had lost her ticket and money. Lei Feng used his own allowance to buy a train ticket to Jilin and stuffed it into his sister-in-law's hand. The sister-in-law said with tears in her eyes: "Brother, what is your name and which unit do you belong to?" Lei Feng said: "My name is the People's Liberation Army. Just live in China.”
One day in May, Lei Feng was going to Shenyang in the rain. In order to catch the early train, he got up at around 5 o'clock in the morning, took a few steamed buns, put on his raincoat and set off on the road. On the way, he saw a woman carrying Holding a child and leading a little girl by the hand, he was also walking hard towards the station.
Lei Feng took off his raincoat and put it on his sister-in-law, then picked up the little girl and accompanied them to the station. After getting on the train, Lei Feng saw that the little girl was shivering from the cold, so he took off his close-fitting sweatshirt and put it on her. Lei Feng guessed that she hadn't eaten in the morning, so he gave them the steamed buns he brought. When the train arrived in Shenyang, it was still raining, and Lei Feng took them home again. The woman said gratefully: "Comrade, how can I thank you!" During the Chinese New Year, the comrades happily engaged in various recreational activities together. Lei Feng and everyone played table tennis at the club for a while, and they thought of how the service and transportation departments are the busiest during the New Year, and how much help these places need. He put down his racket and called several comrades from his class. After asking for leave together, he went straight to the nearby Paoertun Station. One helped clean the waiting room and the other poured water for the passengers. Lei Feng got the whole class involved.
Lei Feng chose to never stop and wholeheartedly do good things for the people. No wonder people think of Lei Feng when they see people who do good things for the people.
Children’s intimate person
After October 1960, Lei Feng successively served as an after-school tutor at Jianshe Street Primary School (now Lei Feng Primary School) in Fushun City and Benxi Road Primary School. member.
Lei Feng usually works. He is very busy with studies, so he can only use his lunch break or days when he can't drive on rainy days to ask for leave to go to school to talk to teachers, talk to classmates, or carry out other tutoring activities. He is good at uniting children and inspiring them to study hard and make progress every day.
Lei Feng has a high sense of mission. A sense of responsibility and hard work in nurturing the next generation to thrive. In order to commend Lei Feng's deeds, the Fushun Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China issued a certificate on May 28, 1962, which read: "Award to the outstanding counselor Comrade Lei Feng, stay glorious and keep moving forward." Model squad leader
In September 1961, the entire group unanimously elected Lei Feng as a deputy to the Fushun Municipal People's Congress.
After Lei Feng attended the National People’s Congress, he returned to the company and served as the monitor of the fourth squad of the second platoon. Under his leadership, the fourth squad became the "Four Good Squads", and Lei Feng also became the fourth squad of the entire company. Good monitor.
One evening, it started to rain heavily. Lei Feng saw a woman on the road holding a child in her arms, holding the child in her hand, and carrying a baggage, sliding step by step in the heavy rain. As they were walking, Lei Feng hurriedly stepped forward to inquire and found out that the sister-in-law had returned from visiting relatives out of town and was going to Zhangzigou more than ten miles away. She said anxiously: "Comrade, the rain has made me confused today. There is a child here, and I can’t even cry home!” Lei Feng put his raincoat on his sister-in-law, picked up the older child and walked towards Zhangzigou in the rain. He would rather get soaked and walk for two days. It took many hours to send mother and son home.
Modest and Prudent
Since Lei Feng joined the army, he has won many awards for his meritorious service. He was elected as a deputy to the Municipal People's Congress and attended the first *** Youth League Representative Conference of the Shenyang Military Region. His photo, Diaries and exemplary deeds. Through newspapers. The radio station carried out extensive publicity, and Lei Feng received letters of enthusiastic praise from all over the country. He wrote this passage in his diary: "Everything I have is given by the party. The glory should go to the party and to the enthusiasm for helping me." Comrade, as for the work I have done personally, it is too little. My small contribution is still not enough compared to the requirements and expectations for me..." After the sacrifice on the morning of August 15, 1962 At around eight o'clock, it was drizzling, and Lei Feng and his assistant Qiao Anshan drove back to the station from the construction site. After they drove the car into the company's parking lot, they found a lot of mud and water splashed on the car body. Regardless of the fatigue of the long drive, they immediately asked Qiao Anshan to start the car and go to an open space to wash the car. After passing through a relatively narrow aisle in front of the barracks, for safety reasons, Lei Feng stood on the edge of the aisle, raising his arms and directing Xiao Qiao to reverse and turn; "Left, left... Back! Back!" Suddenly the left rear wheel of the car slipped into the road. By the ditch, the car swayed violently and suddenly knocked over a square wooden pole usually used to dry clothes and quilts. Unfortunately, Lei Feng was hit on the head by the falling pole of Fang Lin. He fell to the ground on the spot and passed out... Comrade-in-arms They immediately sent him to a nearby hospital on a stretcher for rescue. Heads at all levels rushed to the hospital immediately, and at the same time brought Shenyang's medical experts to Lei Feng's bed as quickly as possible.
Due to skull injury, resulting in brain dysfunction, Lei Feng, a good son of the working people and an outstanding member of the Communist Party of China, was only 22 years old, and he said goodbye to us forever!
On August 17, a grand memorial service was held at the Wanghua District Government Auditorium in Fushun City. Nearly 100,000 people escorted Lei Feng's coffin to the Martyrs Cemetery.
